[b]Equipment for testing the indications accuracy of speedometers and altimeters existing on board aircraft and the tightness of the related pneumatic paths[/b]
Journal Title: INCAS BULLETIN - Year 2011, Vol 3, Issue 1
Abstract
The equipment is intended to testing the tightness of the catchment pneumatic system (Pitot tube), the transmission (pneumatic paths) and the total and static air pressures processing (aircraft-type instruments) in order to establish the main flight parameters and checking the correctness of the operation of related aircraft instruments: the altimeter and the speedometer.
